Bug Description

I just fresh installed Lubuntu Oneiric 32-bit, upgraded its packages to the current versions, and then did a 'update-manager -d' to go to Precise Beta 1, and it wanted to pull in 328 new packages, some of which were obviously not appropriate, such as compiz, gnome-control-center, gnome-session, nautilus, libqtcore4, and unity.

The complete detailed list as evidence by 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' is attached as a text file. I've replicated this behavior 3 times out of 3 attempts.

UPDATE: This is actually an extension of Bug 903895. gnome-bluetooth is pulling in all these dependencies and while it has been removed as of lubuntu-meta 0.31, when upgrading from Oneiric (which has gnome-bluetooth) to Precise, the system never removes gnome-bluetooth and it gets upgraded and pulls in all of its new dependencies.

Thanks for your bug report. I don't think we can do anything in lubuntu-meta, but we can at least modify update-manager to be more lubuntu friendly
